Does the institution use Light Emitting Diode (LED) technology in at least one lighting application? LED applications in exit signs and remote controls do not count for this credit.:

A brief description of the technology used:
We have LED lighting in some locations.
Most campus LED lighting is for exterior use, but there are some pilot projects within buildings.
We have 500 linear tube LED lamps to replace the same number of T8 fluorescent lamps for the central utilities building.
We are testing LED fixtures in parking garages 1 & 4.
We have plans to install several hundred LED outdoor fixtures within the next 6 months in the west campus parking areas.

Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
Because we have adhere to a 7 year return on energy investments, most LED systems are not yet affordable for indoor lighting. LED lumen output per watt has now attained parity and in some cases exceeded the lumen per output of fluorescent lamps. Fixture cost is still substantially higher than other equally energy efficient technologies.
